Here is Rafa Benitez’s post-match Press conference after Newcastle United’s superb comeback at Anfield – and he was in upbeat mood after the 2-2 draw.

You can watch the Spaniard’s full six-minute Press conference here, and decide for yourself whether you share his optimism about staying in the Premier League.

United were one down after just over a minute – and that deficit was doubled before the break. But Papiss Cisse’s goal and an equaliser from Jack Colback earned a point for Newcastle as they battle to stay in the Premier League.

“We have to keep going,” he said.

“I have told the players it is important to understand that the reaction is only part of the way, and that it is more important not to make mistakes and allow the other teams to go ahead at the beginning of games.

“You never know how important the point will be. We have to do our job in the other games.

“The reaction of the team shows they still believe. Hopefully the next games, the fans will continue to show their support against Crystal Palace and we can get more points.”

United take on Crystal Palace at St James’ Park then travel to Aston Villa before a final day meeting with Spurs.
